Free After Effects CS6+ Project: Volume Knob UI with Slider Expressions (d3luxxxe)
Original title: After Effects Tutorial - Volume Knob UI Animation | Slider Control, Expressions + Free Project
Overview
d3luxxxe offers this free After Effects project from a tutorial on designing a volume knob UI element with shape layers. A control layer with a volume slider and a glow color control drives the design: the knob's rotation, glow opacity and LED indicators are linked to a single slider expression, so the animation needs only a few keyframes, and no plugins are required.
The 137 KB Gumroad product is free at $0 or more and asks for an email address; the project needs After Effects CS6 or any newer version.
